Sonochemical Functionalization of Glass

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A new method for functionalizing glass using ultrasonication of aryl diazonium salts. Aryl radicals generated by ultrasounds react with glass, forming a stable, covalently bonded organic film. The functionalized glass adheres microorganisms such as microalgae, fungi, and bacteria, suggesting potential applications in enzyme production, filtration ...

Sampling the protonation states: pH-dependent UV absorption spectrum of a polypeptide dyad [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
When a chromophore interacts with titrable molecular sites, the modeling of its photophysical properties requires to take into account all their possible protonation states. We have developed a multi-scale protocol, based on constant-pH molecular dynamics simulations coupled to QM/MM excitation energy calculations, aimed at sampling both the phase ...
